log4perl.appender.Mailer = Log::Dispatch::Email::MailSend
log4perl.appender.Mailer.to = drone@example.net
log4perl.appender.Mailer.subject = Something's broken!
log4perl.appender.Mailer.layout = SimpleLayout

Its unclear from the documentation when the email is sent, but its not immediately

hi thanks for your reply, but i want to determine exactly when to send the mail. I know that your solution is buffering the logs before sending. Your can disable buffering with: `log4perl.appender.Mailer.buffered = 0` [download] in your log4perl.conf but this is not what i´m searching for ... nevertheless THANKS	[reply] [d/l]
